How Fire Sprinkler Leak Cleanup Works in Ashkum

Multiple levels can be damp after one overhead discharge. Testing lower rooms identifies materials that also need attention.

1. Remove pooled sprinkler water

   Bulk extraction takes water off the surface so the drying phase can address what remains inside materials.

2. Trace wet material beyond the puddle

   The technician tests ceiling edges, wall bases and lower rooms for water movement.

3. Open trapped areas when needed

   A closed wall base can hold sprinkler water; the technician assesses whether opening is necessary.

4. Verify the dry condition

   Dehumidifiers and air movers run under a plan guided by material readings.
